Silly Scraps Saturday

I love the Bind-it-All for making books that will expand with collaged yumminess. Most stitched bindings don't allow space for every page to have things glued on them.

Lots of people are using square formats these days; I'm finishing off a 6 x 6" journal that I use for an Idea Book. The final inspiration for this new 4" x 4" book was Painted Pages Fueling Creativity Sketchbooks, by Sarah Ahearn Bellemare. She recommends that everyone have a 4" x 4" "scrap" book. I'm hoping that this new book will fuel my collage creativity. (My scrap box feels neglected.)

About Me

I love learning new things, either in a class or on my own. I've always loved school, reading, and museums. I notice and appreciate beauty and excellence.
I'd rather walk than ride, and I'd rather ride my bike than drive. I love sunshine and hearing the birds sing. And I love to sing. LOUD.
I'm grateful that I have the time to do these things and pursue my love of paper crafts.
